Compensator 3.0?

Long time fans of the LTT channel will remember the Compensator and Compensator 2.0 build logs well I went and designed a rig I'm going to build dubbed the Compensator 3.0. Just wanted to get the opinion of the community to see if this build is worthy of the title. Ignore the Water Cooler I just placed that in there so PCPP wouldn't scream at me saying I needed to add a cooler to the list the build will actually be water cooled

Looks good. The samsung drive is completely overpriced for a secondary drive, and that psu is seriously overkill. You shouldn't need mor than 1000w

Wew, I see an SLI build. Looks like budget isn't a problem for you, but I think it's a bit overkill.

The deep blue sky is infinitely high and crystal clear.

That was the whole point of the compensator builds, complete overkill no compromises.I was going to do a 9900K but then I realized the 3950X is only $200 extra and has double the core and thread count. I

Overkill = A waste of money for the most part. If this is just a gaming pc then you are just throwing money away.

Not overkill enough to be called compensator, only a single 27"

You need multiple 49" ultrawides

32gb ram is also not over kill enough, you should be looking at using 32gb Dimms, with X570, that would be 128gb ram.
